Detailed Description

Base of all NETGEN algorithms.

This class provides common methods for all algorithms implemented by NETGEN plugin.

Note

This class must not be instantiated directly.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

def __init__	(		self,
			mesh,
			geom = 0
	)

Private constructor.

Parameters

mesh	parent mesh object algorithm is assigned to
geom	geometry (shape/sub-shape) algorithm is assigned to; if it is 0 (default), the algorithm is assigned to the main shape

References NETGEN_Algorithm.algoType, and Mesh_Algorithm.Create().

Member Function Documentation

def SetMaxSize	(		self,
			theSize
	)

Sets MaxSize parameter.

Parameters

theSize

new value of the MaxSize parameter

References NETGEN_Algorithm.Parameters().

def SetMinSize	(		self,
			theSize
	)

Sets MinSize parameter.

Parameters

theSize

new value of the MinSize parameter

References NETGEN_Algorithm.Parameters().

def SetOptimize	(		self,
			theVal
	)

Sets Optimize flag.

Parameters

theVal

new value of the Optimize parameter

References NETGEN_Algorithm.Parameters().

def SetFineness	(		self,
			theFineness
	)

Sets Fineness parameter.

Parameters

theFineness

new value of the Fineness parameter; it can be: VeryCoarse, Coarse, Moderate, Fine, VeryFine or Custom

References NETGEN_Algorithm.Parameters().

def SetGrowthRate	(		self,
			theRate
	)

Sets GrowthRate parameter.

Parameters

theRate

new value of the GrowthRate parameter

References NETGEN_Algorithm.Parameters().

def Parameters	(		self,
			which = SOLE
	)

Creates meshing hypothesis according to the chosen algorithm type and initializes it with default parameters.

Parameters

which

hypothesis type; can be either SOLE (default) or SIMPLE

Returns

hypothesis object

def SetMeshSizeFile	(		self,
			file
	)

Defines a file specifying size of elements at points and lines.

Parameters

file	name of the file
